Rod McNeil
Playing the musical circuit like I have for many years, you meet a lot of different people. Some folks seem larger than life and one such character was Rod McNeil, who promoted bluegrass shows at the Moose Lodge in Elizabeth PA. Rod brought folks together, providing a venue, building an audience, and treating the musicians with great care and respect. His concert series lost steam and ended a year of so after his passing, suggesting that he himself was the real attraction. Music and music people were Rod’s joy, and the melody of this song is borrowed from The Joy Of My Life, one of the first jigs I ever learned.
